for sunni jihadis, my colleague and friend would say libya is a place to watch. nobody seems to be watching it anymore. and also kind of the recruitment that's going on, i have caught recruitment now for iraqi shia groups that's going on in pakistan for shia to be brought over as foreign fighters. this is now really becoming kind of a broader whole islamic world that's being engaged for fighters, for recruits, all sorts of things. >> as i listen to you talk about yourself and your work and mr. zellen, your friend, there are those who would suggest you are often ahead of the curve when it comes to getting information, ahead of our super stealth intelligence agencies. if that's the case, why is that? >> well, i try to synthesize and look at many different varieties of information. i'm very self-deprecating so taking credit for getting things first is a bit of a problem for me. but the intelligence services, they do a very hard job. and unfortunately sometimes they get trapped in a bubble where they don't want to look at anything that's new. for instance, looking at

what to do in syria, what to do in libya. these are very complicated questions. often, there is no obvious right or wrong. what to do with the bin laden raid. you know, several people who did not want obama to do that, who were advising him. bob gates, even joe biden said he was in favor of this. should they have resigned because obama went ahead? i think david, who i like, is making too much of this. and i think it's really easy to play this sort of armchair game of looking back. you know, we have never done a good job of giving arms to anybody overseas in territories and areas that we don't know well. you know, whether it's the hungarians, the cubans, you know, the contras. time and time again, we don't play this game well. the brits didn't do it well before us in the middle east. so the idea that we could have gotten and done something better in syria two years ago, at best, that's a flip of the coin, and i think that's giving it really the benefit of a very big doubt. >> yeah, you know, i know leon panetta and i worked with leon panetta. i have absolutely no

this was accentuated in libya. i spoke very strongly against the notion that a president could unilaterally conduct military operations in an area where we had no treaties at work, no americans under attack or at risk. and you take a look at the end result of libya, an enormous number of weapons unaccounted for which are probably in syria. and can you get to the tripoli airport today? now, if you take a look at syria, which is -- syria and parts of iraq, which is what the former soldier was talking about, we now have a situation where we are asking these freedom fighters or whatever you want to call them who were going after assad to help us go after isis. >> it's not clear they are going to do that. >> the elements that are fighting there are very fluid in terms of the people who declare their alliances. i would be willing to bet that we have people at the top of isis who actually have been trained by americans at some point. >> let me move to your political poe -- potential political am decisi ambitions. >> i'm n
